Where 9 journalists get their election news

Nov 5, 2024 | poynter.org | Amaris Castillo |Angela Fu |Kristen Hare |TyLisa Johnson

Aug 6, 2024 | poynter.org | Kristen Hare |TyLisa Johnson |Josie Hollingsworth |Angela Fu

The big news last week: After 16 months of imprisonment in Russia under false charges, Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich was free. The Journal was not the newsroom to break that story, however. Bloomberg News was.
